Plain-language change summary

The updated version of Bill HB 2829 clarifies the termination of severance taxes on limestone and sandstone, specifically stating that these taxes will end on July 1, 2019. Previously, the language was a bit more complex and included healthcare services in the tax discussion. This change is significant because it provides clearer guidelines for businesses engaging in the extraction of limestone and sandstone, likely supporting economic stability and growth in those sectors.
